About the Event:

In February, people from all around the world participate in cultural celebrations including Carnival Brazil, Mardi Gras in New Orleans, Carnival Mazatlan, Fasching in Germany, and Carnival Venice. Since 2009, we have modeled our annual fundraiser after these celebrations.

Join us on Friday, March 6 2026, for a vibrant display of live performances, delicious food and beverages, and fellowship at The Factory on Barclay, in the Harbor District of Milwaukee’s Historic Walker’s Point.

Each year this highly anticipated community event brings together people from a diverse array of backgrounds, neighborhoods and ages – we believe this interaction is meaningful and promotes a deeper appreciation of the “mosaic” that is Milwaukee.
